Cool interview, I like interviews because they are much more personal than an article and sometimes journalists will take away bits that they think are necessary and the viewers won't want to know.

I'm not sure whether Chigs was hoping for a return next season or not, but this would seem to say that it's unlikely except for, maybe, the 20/20 matches

I also spotted this a few days ago regarding Riki Wessels and Northants

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/cricket ... 006989.stm

A vague possibility of him returning to Northants next season, although with the tightening of kolpak restrictions i would find it unlikely

A shame, but not really a surprise, he didn't set the world alight. In fact, he wasn't even in the Northants side for the last couple of weeks of the season. Was he injured, or just dropped?

I think Wessels *might* be qualified through residence to play as a domestic player in the UK from next year. He failed to play as a Kolpak this season, so I guess that route is closed to him now.
